The Politico IS Barry’s re-election campaign.

I’ve called them Pollutico since very early on.

Pollutico is also the DC RINOs new weapon of choice in their continuing campaign to "stop Sarah."

Still, I've got strong suspicions that there is another JournoList out there in which the former members of said list are coordinating their hit pieces. It's become all too apparent this week, and Pollutico is up to its eyeballs in it.

I don’t know why anyone has ever considered them a legitimate media outlet. They have been a Dem operative organization since their inception. They are little different than Kos or Michael Moore. Maybe slightly closer to the mainstream.

“She would have done much better if she had just ridden above all the nonsense and the politics of the shooting, including all the references of her map.”

I agree with this. The best defense is a good offense and her message should have stayed with the above-the-fray tone.

Stooping, yet again, to attacks against the media and opponents on the left which surveys showed most Americans didn’t believe anyway only brings her down to their level. Leave the criticism to others.

I was suspicious simply because they came out of nowhere and immediately had press credentials at the white house.

This is only slight hyperbole, but asking if someone likes Sarah Palin is just about like asking did "Jesus Christ come in the flesh?"

You get the same reactions from the same people whether you ask either or both of these questions.

Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

Why not just post it here?

Why use Mrs. Palin's name as blog-hit bait?

Hugh Hewitt just figured out Politico isn't moderate. And, Hugh Hewitt is dumber than a brick.

Politico is staffed by some of the most dishonest, unethical people in a field known for dishonest, unethical people.

Rep. Shelley Berkley practiced law for several years, mainly as a member of the legal counsel for several Las Vegas casinos. She also served as the national director for the American Hotel-Motel Association.

Look folks, the majority of the American people and voters have POTUS Barack Hussein Obama’s number as the chief con artist & flim/flam man who would not know truth, decency, freedom and liberty, if it was right in front of his nose. And.....they also know that “Politico” is just a shrill organ for Obama and his “Hate America” Democrat Party. Actually, “Politico” is just a rant rag for the left-wing, liberal, Obama lock-steppers. I don’t lose any sleep over “Politico”. It has no objectivity, therefore it has no substance, no honest input and it is what it is, useless and unheeded, other then as an Obama cheerleader!!!

I saw that Hewitt piece on how Politico is going down hill...but he forgot to mention that Mike Allen (who started Politico) is known in DC as “Carl Rove’s reporter”.

This is Rove’s doing, no doubt.

The Arizona Republic is ‘proudly partnered’ with Politico.
As if the paper couldn’t get any worse.

Posting teasers to gain blog hits is fine if it's done in Palin's name?

As long as something makes use of Palin's name it's fine?

Awesome toughness you display by crying to the moderator, too.
